Ask SAM: How did 'Gunsmoke' end? — R.M. Answer: The last episode of “Gunsmoke” was not designed to be a series finale. The episode, “The Sharecroppers,” aired in 1975 and revolved around Deputy Festus Haggen, who accidentally shoots a man in the leg and then helps out at the man’s family farm. As Hal Erickson, a media historian, wrote, the episode “was a low-key comic exercise emphasizing Festus, in no way suggesting that a two-decade era was about to come to an abrupt end.”
